Barry Schwartz sur le paradoxe du choix

Le psychologue Barry Schwartz s'attaque à un dogme central des sociétés occidentales: la liberté de choix. Selon Schwartz, le choix nous a rendus non pas plus libres mais plus paralysés, non pas plus heureux, mais plus insatisfaits.

Growing up in a world with 175 salad dressings and millions of stereo options might seem like progress, but more choice often leads to paralysis and regret. When faced with too many possibilities, people struggle to decide and feel less satisfied with their eventual pick. High expectations rise with every new option, making disappointment more likely, even with objectively better outcomes. As standards soar, so does the tendency to blame oneself, fueling dissatisfaction and even depression.
